Industrial Endoscope Borescope Camera with Light 4 3 HD Digital Handheld Waterproof Sewer Tools Snake Inspection Camera with

Got this just for my chimney inspections 5 months back, but it's so easy to use that I started using it to survey crawlspaces and wallspaces. Biggest pros for me are ease of use & value for the price point. The camera pics are really clear, and you can vary screen brightness settings to suit your ambient needs. End-tip LEDs work really well even while rooting through black chimney pipe etc. Lightweight unit. Wasn't confident the camera flex cord would be stiff enough for multiple pipe bends, but the good news is it's been plenty stiff enough: retains its shape. Came with everything organized in compact box for EZ access & storage. Battery has held charge really well after repeated uses, and I like the fast EZ recharge feature. Another + is ease of cleaning; just wipe the shrouds and done, even after creosote. IMO they did really good on this one. Read more

It’s nice not having to deal with short range WiFi networks (and apps) to get an image. However, I wish there was a way to record an image, (unless I missed something). Other than that, the images are good, the length is good, and battery life is decent. Read more

I had a situation where the oil-pressure sensor/sending-units on both of my Chevy V-8 vehicles failed within two weeks of each other. The first one I replaced, I did "blind" by working by feel since there's no way to directly see the sensor behind the intake air plenum and the fuel rails, etc - that was the 8.1L - it wasn't easy to find and get the old part out and getting the new part back in was worse. Then I got to the 6.0L - it was somehow even tighter quarters, even with the smaller engine. My hands are relatively large, and I had trouble getting my hand/forearm in to get to the sensor on the 8.1 - the 6.0 was even tighter, so I ordered this tool. Now I'm wishing that I had gotten this scope before swapping out the sensor on the 8.1L - it made it so that I could see exactly where the sensor was, see the locking-clip on the wire connector to get that loose easily, and then get the socket onto the sensor to remove it. Then, getting the new sensor threaded in straight was MUCH easier by using scope - could see exactly where the port was to get it lined up. The LED light at the camera end is nice and bright and has multiple brightness levels in case things are too reflective in the space you're using it when on full power. The battery life seems really good too - I had it turned on for about 1 hour to do that job with the LED lights on full-power, and the battery-level still says it's at 100%. This scope is much nicer than ones that I had used in the past - due to the longer cable, you can set up the screen somewhere stable and where you can see it easily, and then fish the camera in where it needs to be without disturbing the position of the screen. Even in the bright midday sun, the screen was plenty bright for me to see in the shade of the open hood. I did make one minor modification due to previous experience with other scopes - I took a paint marker and put a white stripe on the camera housing to indicate the "top" of the lens - makes it easier to fish the camera into places in the orientation that you want - that's what I show in the third picture. I like this scope much better than the Milwaukee scope I had bought years ago - this one has a MUCH better and larger screen, and a MUCH longer cable, and the cable is much more manageable with regard to being able to manipulate it without displacing the screen position - so much more convenient to use. This tool easily paid for itself in reduced frustration and by greatly reducing the time it took me to swap out that one sensor - probably cut more than an hour off of the job for me judging by how much faster I got the 6.0L sensor swapped out than the 8.1, even with the fact that the space I had to work was smaller and the angles to get to the sensor were more challenging. I would definitely recommend this tool to anyone - don't think it can be beat - especially at this price-point In fact, I'd say this tool is a "must-have" for anyone who works on cars or does other repairs where you can't get your head in a position to see what you're working on - from a frustration-saving standpoint, you really can't afford NOT to have this. It's simple enough to use that anyone who has the aptitude to do minor repairs should be able to figure out how to use it without even reading the instructions - but I looked over the instructions anyway (after using the scope to do that first job) and they are well written.

This is not your typical electrical diagnostic type scanner tool. We have several diagnostic tools that we use on our project cars but all of them are a bit complicated to use and take several hours of reading then a few more of trial and error. Downloading apps, updating software and dealing with software glitches makes me think twice before using them. I would rather take the motor apart and see for myself what I can find. This Endoscope could not be easier to use. It comes with a partial charge so you can have this down into a cylinder in about 30 seconds after opening the box. It is perfect for so many other projects besides my cars. Small engines, plumbing and even HVAC projects are getting done faster and better. Nothing fancy but seems to be pretty rugged. I have dropped it several times and keep it in a drawer with other small tools. So far so good. I am now thinking of an upgrade but really no reason to. This does exactly what I need it for and it was a great value considering the promotion at the time. The line is fairly rigid but it needs to be to get to where you are going. Great engineering. Just take your time and this tool will get to the source of the issue. Read more

Just fired-up this Endoscope after charging. I'm impressed. At this price point, the image is exceptional. Using it to troubleshoot what appears to be a clogged drain pipe. Can also see it being used for auto engine cylinder inspections through the spark plug hole. If you have needs . . . . . just get it. Will update after actual usage. Read more

The attachment bag was cut open and the contents scattered in the box, the cable looked to be uncoiled and re-coiled. I suppose someone bought it, used it and returned it? I only report the condition as received and really don't know the history, but the opened bag and bent cable is fishy. The unit works OK, the picture is a bit grainy but quite adequate at different distances. I can see detail just fine. The lighting is good. It will be perfect for my purpose and no need to return. Had it been in unopened condition, I would give it 5 stars. Read more
